Michael Siegel, U.S. Rep. French Hill's communications director, is leaving after more than six years on Capitol Hill. Caroline Thorman, deputy communications director to U.S. Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., has been hired to replace him. Siegel was one of Hill's early hires and joined the Little Rock congressman's office early in 2015. Before that, he worked for the House Committee on Veterans Affairs. Starting next month, he'll be going to work at W.S. Jenks & Son, his family's hardware store. In business for 151 years, W.S. Jenks predates telephones and was once the backdrop for a 1993 forum on health care featuring then-President Bill Clinton. The company, which recently moved to a new location in northeast Washington, is the city's oldest hardware store, its website states. |
